I need a list of Video Cards...

Recommended Posts

I need a list of Nvidia and ATI cards formattted from worst to best. What I mean specifically is chipsets. I.E.

 

GeForce 2 MX

Radeon 7000

GeForce 3 MX

Radeon 8000 etc. etc.

 

 

Also what is better GeForce 2 GTS 64MB DDR or an ATI Radeon 7000 64MB?

Well first off go here:

 

Toms VGA Charts PI

and then here:

And secondly there exists no Geforce3 MX only GF3 normal and GF3 TI.

 

Third,

 

I would say the GF2 GTS is probably better than the Radeon 7000.

 

Fourthly,

 

If you are a gamer and want to upgrade, get a modern card. GF2 and Radeon 7xxx are becoming ancient relics.

I am asking this because I have a crap load of extra parts, some of which are video cards. I personally have a GeForce 4 Ti. I am building a machine for my brother and just wish to know if the Gf2 is better than the Ati 7000.

I still use some gf2 mx cards for quake3 laugh

 

Older ati cards suck, like ati rage128pro ultra. It does only 30fps on a celeron 1.2G (where did the ultra go?), but the best is that you can still buy this card and people who buy it think that they could play games. My old voodoo3 was faster than that.

 

BTW if you wanna know which card is the fastest, put all the cards in a computer one after another and benchmark them with 3dmark or quake3...

Or even play a few of the games your brother does and see how they compare to each other wink

Radeon:

7000/VE

7200

7500

9000

9200 SE

9000 PRO

9200

9200 PRO

8500/9100

9600 SE

9500

9600

9600 PRO

9500 PRO

9800 SE

9600 XT

9700

9800

9700 PRO

9800 PRO

9800 XT

 

As how the GF line roughly compares:

Geforce 1 = Radeon 7000

Geforce 2 = Radeon 7500

Geforce 3 = Radeon 8500/9100/9000/9200

Geforce 4 Ti4200 = Radeon 9500/9600 PRO

Geforce 4 Ti4400/4600 = Radeon 9700

Geforce FX 5600/5700/5800 = Radeon 9500+

Geforce FX5200 = Radeon 8500/9000/9100/9200

Geforce FX 5900+ = Radeon 9800 PRO

I think this is the most up to date and correct relations:

 

GF FX 5950 Ultra / ATI Radeon 9800XT

GF FX 5900 Ultra / Geforce FX 5950 / ATi Radeon 9800 Pro

GF FX 5900/ GF FX 5800 / GF FX 5800 Ultra /ATi Radeon 9700 Pro / ATI Radeon 9800

GF FX 5600 Ultra (V2)/ ATi Radeon 9600 Pro / 9600XT

GF FX 5200 / ATI Radeon 9200 Pro

 

GF4 Ti4600 / ATi Radeon 9700

GF4 Ti4400 (no longer made) / Ti4800SE / ATi 9500 Pro(no longer made)

GF4 Ti4280 / ATI Radeon 9600

GF4 Ti4200/ ATi Radeon 9500

 

ATI Radeon 9200

ATi 8500 / GF3 Ti500

ATi 8500LE (9100) / Matrox Parhelia / GF3

ATi 9000 pro

GF3 Ti200

ATi 9000

GF4 MX / GF2 GTS/Ti/Pro/Ultra / ATi 7500

SIS Xabre 200/400/600

Hi, the Ti4200P Turbo outperforms the FX4600 Ultra by a wide margin, I know cos I've had both and the 4600 is crap in Halo. Now I've a 9800XT and it beats anything else....

This is a silly question, but I am a complete dummy when it comes to video cards. Can anyone help me with this. I have the following system and I need a good video card for it. I need the BEST card the system can take full advantage of. Note that is is in no way a top-notch or super fast system, so I need something that the system can take FULL advantage of

 

Athlon XP 2000+ (1.67 GHz) PALOMINO core CPU

Soyo Dragon PLus K7V mainboard

1GB DDR 2100 (266 MHz) DDR Memory

[Video Card Goes here]

plenty of hard drive space (at least 40 GB free)

SBPCI 512 sound card

 

 

Again, the system is NOT cutting edge in any way, so It is pointless to buy a $250 card (for example).

 

Can anyone kindly help?

 

Please list at least one card Ati and at least one card Nvidia so i can compare betwene them

yes the ti4200 / ti4600 beat out manyh of the low end FX cards - until u start to use alot of AA and FSAA.

 

but that is sad that a last gen cards beats it new counter part!

 

 

for your system about - a 9600XT or PRO or even a ti4200 if u wont play many new game out would do and dont want to spend too much.`
